From this decade it's been 2012 and 2013. 2010 was TRASH, 2014 could've been a lot better but I held myself back. 2015 has been the most life changing but that came with dealing with my parent's divorce, not having a lot of friends anymore, moving away to Florida etc.
2010 was kind of an exciting time from start to finish. I was 18, met a **** ton of new people, had a lot of sex, and there wasnt any serious stresses in my life. Everyone around me was just down to have a good time and we were all young and just existing.
But to be honest, im drastically more self actualized now and so are most of the people in my life which in its own way makes for the current time period to be better. Were still young and having a good time but adult stresses are far more grim than anything I tripped about 5 years ago. So tit for tat I guess.
